BN@10: Crime activist Ian Cameron - Corporate SA has failed us; its involvement with ANC won't improve things

Loading player...
In another hard-hitting keynote, his trademark, Action Society's Ian Cameron highlights deep-rooted issues within the criminal justice system in South Africa, expressing frustration at double standards, corruption, and a lack of vision. He also suggests some practical steps to fix a disastrous situation where more South African civilians are murdered than their Ukrainian counterparts are killed by invading Russians. Cameron calls for a comprehensive, action-oriented approach to reforming the police service, addressing poverty as a root cause of crime, and restoring ethics and integrity. He also rejects the efforts by Corporate South Africa which, he believes, have failed the nation and making things worse by companies supporting the "criminal syndicates" that control the ANC and the SA Police Services. - Alec Hogg
